"Begfnning with the republican party" he
says, II should say that the whole tendency has
been toward strong concentration of the Blaine

complete control OF the national republican ina
chine Never within my recollection has there
been time when the organization was in a more
compact shape or mora subject to single control

anti-Blaine element has been eliminated from the
machine or reduced to position OF comparative

As to the democratic nomination, MIR. Grace
concludes that "Mr. B!aine's renomination would

''Ihere is, lie Says, "a most complete unanimlty
OF sentiment among observers or events to the er-
feet that MI. Cleveland Is The natural and neces-
sary Candidate OF the democratic party for the
next President. There is to be sure, considerable
complaint on the part OF old liners and bourbons,
who do not seem TO appreciate the fact that the
world moves and that the American people have
completely changed their ideas as TO the methods
Of administration and the control OF the civil
VICE Pubic sentiment however, Is strong with
Mr.. Cleveland, because OF the many evidences he
has given OF a desire TO act as a national officer
rather than the officer OF party and because OF
his strong conservatism in the protection OF the
civil service and the public treasury. Even that
portion OF the press which condemns him, only too
frequently from no exalted patriotic motive is
obliged to applaud his pension veto, bis attitude
toward the transcOnt1nental roads, his position on
the subject II the public lands and the stand he
has taken against some OF the cattle kings in the
West. With the people at large Mr.. Cleveland
grows In popularity daily. He inspires the oonri-
dence OF the citizen and Taxpayer, il not or the
socialist and professional politician, and the citi-
zen and the Taxpayer are going to determine the
question OF the next President"
